6. Hello Operator (Canada)
Poised to be the new Cars, this band has crafted some of the catchiest, shiniest new wave inspired rock of 2006. Their debut EP was absolutely flawless and their most recent song, 55 Regrets, continues in the same manner. A full-length album of this kind of stuff is just the shot that rock radio needs right now. I have extremely high hopes for these guys in 2007.

5. Dangerous Muse (United States)
Despite releasing two amazing EPs this year, this duo have yet to put their talents to a full length album. Still, every song that they’ve released so far has been equally great, and they’re poised to fill a dance floor niche that is just waiting for them. With the right song, they could become superstars in 2007. They’re already got a lot of fans and I have yet to play their songs for somebody who wasn’t instantly converted as well.
Best Track: Give Me Danger

gah! I keep meaning to comment on the absolute brilliance of your site at the moment. It is a tour de force. I am loving the guy chewing grass, your top ten picks for next year (yes get your lazy arses back in the studio Dangerous Muse!) and i quite like hearing about the ark and bands that sound like the ark. its all good!
Always nice to hear, Paul. Sometimes I feel like I'm talking to a wall with the Ark/Mo stuff and wonder how many people are actually fans or have bought the cds. Those two groups are pretty much the reason I originally started the blog.
